Patent 11572388 was granted and assigned to Kite Pharma, Inc. on February, 2023 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The invention provides novel peptides (e.g., linkers) and polypeptide compositions comprising the linkers (e.g., fusion proteins) and methods of using the polypeptide compositions. Peptides (e.g., linkers) are useful as tags and for engineering fusion proteins (e.g., antigen binding molecules, scFv). Polypeptide linkers described herein facilitate flexibility of linked peptides allowing for proper folding, conformation and reduced immunogenicity.
